Beyond the body? The Future of Embodied Cognition
Embodied cognition represents one of most important theoretical developments in contemporary
cognitive science. Many cognitive processes appear to be influenced by body morphology,
emotions, and sensorimotor systems. This perspective is supported by an ever increasing collection

action, emotion, and perception systems in seemingly abstract cognitive tasks and the other
consisting of experiments that demonstrate the contribution of bodily interaction with the external
environment to the performance of such tasks
